🚨 Bust the Bluff ❌ Pakistan-based propaganda accounts are circulating targeted unverified claims about 15 Corps Commander, Lt Gen Balbir Singh, including allegations that he was seen intoxicated with a woman officer and another claim that he has committed suicide. ✅ FACT: Both the claims are fake and misleading.
